Schofield, Latrese Davis

Tenure Summary

Latrese Davis Schofield's documented Georgia Department of Corrections career runs from 2005, when she held a Residential Housing Coordinator for Mental Health Management post, through a 2010 stint as Medical Reprieve Coordinator, then a long stretch as a Business Support Analyst III. The records tie her 2017 and 2025 analyst entries to Metro Reentry Facility in DeKalb County, where she moved into facility leadership: Deputy Warden from January 1 to April 30, 2025, and Deputy Warden of Care and Treatment from May 1, 2025 onward. A separate record entry lists her as Deputy Warden on August 27, 2026, again at Metro Reentry.

GPS attributes 9 deaths to her leadership tenures, all of them at Metro Reentry Facility. Every one of those deaths is recorded while she held the Deputy Warden of Care and Treatment role. No lawsuits naming her as a defendant appear in the records, and there are no news reports that name her directly.

What happened on their watch

Metro Reentry Facility — Deputy Warden, Jan. 1 – Apr. 30, 2025. No deaths attributed to this posting appear in the records. The custodial-death entries tied to her leadership tenure all fall after the Care and Treatment appointment; the records document no intel reports or facility events for this window.

Metro Reentry Facility — Deputy Warden of Care and Treatment, May 1, 2025 – present. Nine deaths are recorded during this tenure, per GPS custodial-death records:

• John Whitfield, 61 — Oct. 5, 2025
• Wilson Beavers, 66 — Oct. 10, 2025
• Stephen Mott, 52 — Oct. 20, 2025
• Rodney Corbin, 55 — Oct. 23, 2025
• Robert Rodriguez Johnson, 46 — Jan. 1, 2026
• Donald Woods, 65 — Jan. 31, 2026
• Samuel Dennis Hunt, 64 — Mar. 1, 2026
• Cedric Clement Pierce, 61 — Apr. 13, 2026
• Thomas Allen McKendrick, 82 — Jul. 6, 2026

The decedents ranged in age from 46 to 82. The records place five of the nine under one coded cause category (Whitfield through Johnson, October 2025 – January 2026) and four under a second category (Woods through McKendrick, January – July 2026); the records supplied here do not define those category labels, so no cause is asserted here. The October 2025 cluster saw four deaths in nineteen days.

Separately, GPS event records for Metro Reentry document the January 17, 2026 death of Silas Westbrook, who was transferred to the facility from Washington State Prison after being hospitalized with minor injuries from the Washington State Prison disturbance and suffered a medical emergency on arrival, per the event record. His body was turned over to the county coroner and was to be taken to the GBI crime lab to determine the official cause of death (event dated Jan. 21, 2026), and the GDC Office of Professional Standards was investigating the death as of Jan. 22, 2026. Westbrook does not appear among the nine decedents in the custodial-death records tied to Schofield's tenure. All three Westbrook event entries list her role at the time as Deputy Warden of Care and Treatment.
